Booking Terms and Conditions

The information on this Website is correct at the time of submission to the Website. It is your responsibility to ascertain whether a Performance has been cancelled or rescheduled. We will make all reasonable attempts to promptly notify purchasers of any such cancellation or rescheduled Performance but make no guarantees in this respect.

We reserve the right to refuse any ticket holder admission to (and/or eject such person from) a Performance, or to our building and auditorium.

You consent to the filming and sound recording of your participation in any Performance, as a member of the audience. We will endeavour to inform you prior to the start of the Performance if such recording is to take place.

We reserve the right to make adjustments and alter programmes, special offers and incentive rates at any time without notice.

Only holders of tickets purchased from our Box Office, or our official ticket agencies, will be admitted to a Performance.

It is your responsibility to check your tickets as soon as they arrive with you as mistakes cannot always be rectified.

Save in respect of liability which cannot be limited by law, our liability to you pursuant to these booking conditions is limited to the face value of the ticket purchased.

These booking terms and conditions are governed by English law and subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

In exceptional circumstances North East Theatre Trust Ltd reserves the right to offer alternative seats to those specified on the tickets.

Unless otherwise stated only one concession per ticket applies. North East Theatre Trust Ltd reserves the right to request proof of eligibility for any concession on purchase or collection of tickets.

Payments

Payments can be made by cash (in person only), cheque, (made payable to North East Theatre Trust Ltd) or the following credit and debit cards – Visa, MasterCard, Visa Delta, Maestro, and Electron. Tickets must be paid for at the time of booking, tickets cannot be reserved.

You can check your transactions online by logging into your account with your user name and password. If you have further queries please contact the Box Office on 0191 232 1232 or tickets@live.org.uk.

Postal Charges

The ticket price does not include the costs of postage. Second class postage is available on request for an extra cost of £1. If you request and pay for postage, we aim to post tickets out to you within 2-7 days of your purchase.

Delivery / Collection of Tickets

If the performance is within seven days, tickets will be held at the Box Office and may be collected on presentation of the debit/credit card used to make your booking or appropriate proof of identification.

For events further in the future you have the option of either collecting tickets the Box Office at Live Theatre or choose to pay £1 for us to post your tickets to you.

Refunds

Please note, as soon as payment is taken we are unable to offer refunds except in the event of a cancelled performance or if a rescheduled performance date is not convenient. North East Theatre Trust Ltd reserves the right to substitute artists and alter the advertised programme without prior notice. This does not affect your statutory rights.

Personal arrangements, including travel, accommodation, subsistence or hospitality relating to the Performance which have been arranged by you are at your own risk.

Exchanges

Tickets may be exchanged for seats for the same or higher price for a Performance of the same production up to 24 hours before the Performance. Exchanges are strictly subject to availability. There is a £1 charge for each ticket exchanged up to a maximum charge of £5 per transaction. All original tickets must be returned before an exchange can be processed. Postage fees will be retained in the event of an exchange.

Ticket Resales

North East Theatre Trust Ltd will accept tickets for re-sale when a performance has sold out at our discretion. (Please note we can only offer this service for tickets bought direct from North East Theatre Trust Ltd and not ticket agencies.) North East Theatre Trust Ltd is not able to guarantee any ticket offered for re-sale will find a new purchaser. Re-sales are undertaken at the customers own risk. This service is only available if the tickets are first returned to Box Office prior to the Performance.

If tickets are successfully re-sold the customer will receive credit on account to the value of the tickets less a £1 re-sale fee. If the tickets are not re-sold a credit on account will not be given. It is the responsibility of the customer to contact the Box Office to see if their tickets have been re-sold. North East Theatre Trust Ltd will not contact the customer. The resale of North East Theatre Trust Ltd tickets for profit or commercial gain will render them invalid.

Tickets are the responsibility of the customer while they are in the post so using recorded delivery for return of tickets is advisable. Tickets should be marked for the attention of the Box Office.

Latecomers

If you arrive later than the advertised start time or you need to leave the auditorium for any reason then you may be asked to wait until a suitable break in the performance before you can take your seat – this may be the interval. Depending on the Performance we may be unable to admit latecomers at all. North East Theatre Trust Ltd reserves the right to refuse admission.
